Arabis ferdinandi-coburgi ‘Variegata’
Alpine Wall Cress |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.065.350
A variegated selection, quite different in appearance from the more familiar, mounding types of Wall Cress. This forms a very low carpet of rounded, waxy-looking green and white streaked leaves. A choice groundcover for a small area, also excellent for edging and in the rock garden. Great between flagstones. Small white flowers in spring are a bonus, although not particularly showy. Drought tolerant, once established. Also excellent in alpine troughs or mixed containers. Plants are easily divided in early fall. Evergreen.
